Creative wedding centerpiece ideas you can use

August 6th, 2008 · No Comments

Heart Centerpiece

In my opinion, flowers are still the best way to add the finishing touch to any table. After all, that’s why they’re called centerpieces, right? But I’m also a realist.

Floral centerpieces for guest tables at a wedding reception can get expensive, especially for the bride and groom on a tighter budget. Over the years, I’ve worked with brides in some very creative, yet affordable ways combining flowers, plants, candles, and favors as centerpieces on their guest tables.

I was thinking of featuring some of those ideas here, but instead came across an article that pretty much stole my thunder. If you’re looking for centerpiece ideas or just want to get your creative juices flowing, you can read the article here:

Hydrangeas - A summer flower favorite available now

July 16th, 2008 · No Comments

Over the last several years, hydrangeas have consistently been one the most-requested wedding flowers in our shop.

And while most people think of hydrangeas primarily as a wedding flower, I think it’s time to color outside the lines a little.

Hydrangeas are also a great choice to send for birthdays, anniversaries, or simply for no reason at all.

Peak season for hydrangeas is from early spring to fall. What makes them so popular as a cut flowers is the showy size of the blooms, which are often 4 to 8 inches in diameter. Colors include white, pink, blue, green, purple.

Another reason people enjoy hydrangeas is because they’re long-lasting. They have a vase life of 5 to 10 days, and the flowers are suitable for drying after that.

So if your looking to send flowers that are a little out of the ordinary, I’m certain your favorite flower lover will enjoy receiving these magnificent stems of mixed hydrangeas, shipped overnight from our selected growers!
